Black and white etching of a family scene. A man sits on the left in a chair with his elbows on the table. He faces right. A woman sits across from him, holding an infant on her lap. A toddler stands to her right. The people wear simple clothes and head coverings. A plate of food sits on the table in front of the woman. The background shows a slanted roof, ladder, and dark tones. The artist's signature appears in the upper right corner. The scene depicts everyday life. The title is "Saying Grace" and the artist is Adriaen van Ostade.
